The Changelings do love Dr. Mora’s hairstyle.

You’d think O’Brien would be happy to pass the suffering torch to someone else.

Same. Nana Visitor could play one hell of a Space Siobhan.

Completely unrelated to the meme, but I love how folks on Lemmy will frequently provide alt/descriptive text for images. When I have to deal with user-provided images for my org’s website, it’s like pulling teeth to get them to provide anything at all.

Same - I don’t shame anyone for not doing it, but I do try to call out/praise when it’s done and/or done exceptionally well. Hopefully that helps.

Sure doesn’t seem like it. I went to a lot of effort to make the best of the mod API calls that are available and they go and remove a useful chunk of it. 😒

Then join an instance where scores are disabled if you don’t like them. :shurg: Choosing an instance where downvotes are disabled is already a preference, so making the score aggregates optional is completely in line with that.

You’re already on .ml, so they’d have them disabled given it’s run by the devs who have removed the data from the API, so nothing would change for you.

The whole shtick of Lemmy is run your instance the way you want to run it. The removal of the scores from the API seems heavy-handed and feels like the devs are forcing their preferences/values on others.

I’ve always liked Lwaxana. She’s like Mrs. Roper…in SPACE.

I’m not quite as old as my old TV references make me out to be, but random thought: Was she TV’s first cougar?

Ah, gotcha. I wasn’t factoring in Soap Operas, just the prime-time stuff I grew up with. You’re probably correct.

Not sure what’s going on with lemm.ee. The admin there used to be active in the admin chats but hasn’t been around much at all lately. I know he mentioned he got laid off from the startup company he was working for, and that’s when he mostly disappeared (he’s responded to @'s a few times so he’s still around). Maybe he’s just busy with job hunting or his new job doesn’t afford him much time for Lemmy?

    Depends on the UI.

    In the feed, or rather the API endpoint that populates the feed, it is up to the client to combine duplicate; there’s no cross post data attached to the post objects until you click into a post.

    Ooh. I’ve been using Snapcast for my multi-room audio, but this seems more versatile. Going to check it out for sure.

    Have you used it? Curious about latency. Snapcast has about a 1 second buffer which makes it not ideal for anything beyond music casting.

    ptz, (edited )
    @ptz@dubvee.org avatar

    Latency is low enough to not be noticeable when playing video on my laptop and streaming audio to the desktop.

    That’s basically my use case. Want to use my HTPC as the source and some RasPi’s or repurposed thin clients as the sinks - pretty much what I do now with MPD and Snapcast. I absolutely do not want to have to mess with audio offset settings in Emby to keep the dialog in sync. lol

    I’ve only skimmed the docs (holidays are a huge time sink haha), but do you know if it can do one-to-many or just one-to-one? Like, can I have one source and multiple receivers? The docs seemed to imply it could do one-to-many, but I didn’t get to dive into them deep enough.

    The first desktop version, Mac OS X 10.0, was released on March 24, 2001. Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and all releases from OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion to macOS 14 Sonoma are UNIX 03 certified

    I don’t like MacOS, but it’s actually able to be called UNIX.

    What? You didn’t like “Boot Scootin’ Moogie”? /s

    First time I checked back there since the schism, and yeah, you’re 100% right. lol

    You either vote for Biden or you get Trump. Abstaining from the vote you get Trump. MAGA will have a 100% turnout for their God Emperor.

    Also, voting 3rd party in the general election…you get Trump.

    Our two-party system is awful and failing us horribly. If I had to guess, they’re just as frustrated as I am and that’s the only way they can blow off steam; make idle threats about “taking my business vote elsewhere”.

    Hopefully it’s just frustrated, idle rhetoric and they show up at the polls to vote for the only sane option that has a real chance.

    Yeah, it does, but if you try to install packages from apt, it still uses some Ubuntu repos and will try to sneak snaps and snapd in on you.

    All Canonical had to do was NOT push snaps through apt and I’d probably be fine with them.

    I don’t like Google’s Android or Ubuntu. lol

    But I do like Android (AOSP) and Debian a lot though.

    I really do wish reversing the polarity worked like that. lol

    AC broken? No problemo! Just reverse the polarity on the oven.
